Drilled and re-tapped a buggered up hole to install a heli-coil insert. Someone conveniently ran a bolt into the top of this cylinder head (at an angle) with an impact gun. Once the bolt was removed and tore out half of the threads it didn't want to go back in. I wanted to just set the entire engine up on the table (5HP Tecumseh, 2 cycle) but of course it was way too tall to fit under the spindle with a drill chuck, and I don't own a 21/64" R-8 collet. 
Had to split the crankcase and lose the lower half of the motor. Fit like a champ then....
